←Recommendations of Plus or Minus One (a monologue)

Scott Sickles strikes again! Plus or Minus One is a fantastic monologue that kind of makes me want to be an actor again: just to arm myself with a great audition piece like this one. It's topical, relevant, engaging, and extremely entertaining. Actors, check this one out! Great work, Scott. Thank you for sharing this wonderful monologue.

Oh that is scathingly funny, especially that last line. And how well this hits home. Not MY home specifically, but I know so many people on that other side of the political fence from my own (I am a Democrat and ally), and this monologue shines a dark light on those who present to you one way, while condemning in other ways. This is smart stuff, but then, it's from Scott Sickles, a master of blistering satire.

A marvelous short monologue in which the protagonist takes no prisoners in a blistering attack and leaves no questions about the ultimatum. If you thought emotions couldn't get higher at a wedding ceremony, Scott Sickles' "Plus or Minus One" will show you differently.

This comic monologue really makes you think about relating to people who voted against your rights, who don't have a track record of support. Should you save face to not make a scene or raise your voice and make a scene? Even on a wedding day? This monologue will make a great audition piece for a queer performer.

Votes have consequences. Even the votes that go to the losing candidate have consequences — if not for the country than certainly for the people we know and purport to love. Scott's blistering monologue is a powerful reminder that the right-wing march to strip Americans of their rights did not begin in 2016.
Read this. Perform this. And remember that your vote is often a declaration of your moral code.
